When someone moves to a different place, but refuses to make new friends because he/she feels that these new people are not good enough and could never compare to their old friends.
Mom: So have you made any new friends down at college?
Kid: No, these people are not nearly as cool as my old friends.
Mom: Wow, you are such a friend snob.
Kid: No, these people are not nearly as cool as my old friends.
Mom: Wow, you are such a friend snob.

When you become an option. You are not first pick of friends. When your friend starts dating someone and you are put up on a shelf until they have no other people to hang with.
I don't need you anymore, I'm dating somebody. So I'll put you up on the shelf until I have a need for you. You are my shelf friend.

Homosexual; a gay or queer man.
Gay historians say that the term came into popular use in the 1950's as gays and lesbians developed a special connection with Judy Garland, whose ballads of hope and despair and whose relentless spirit, and tragic history, mirrored their struggles in everyday life. She wasn't the first diva or drama queen, but certainly the one who resonated the most to a generation of gays and lesbians. Garland's most famous role -- as the ever-optimistic and wistful Dorothy in the 1939 classic "The Wizard of Oz" -- gave gays and lesbians a "secret" code word which they could use to refer to themselves. At cocktail parties or company gatherings where one could not be comfortably "out and proud," gays would inquire discreetly of each other, "Are you a 'Friend of Dorothy?'" The wink-wink admission of "I am, too!" would likely lead to fabulous and fast bonding in an age when gay bars were clandestine, and in some cases dangerous.
Today, the term is used mostly by Baby Boomers and an older generation of gays and lesbians; the gay members of MTV kids and Generations X and Y would probably not recognize the meaning of "FOD" unless they learned it from some older friends!

something you say when you ask someone something weird but don’t want it to seem like you’re actually asking it
person a: "if a human and a dog conceived, would the female get pregnant and give birth to a humandog? asking for a friend."
person b: wtf
person b: wtf

The figurative hole occupied by those whose romantic feelings are reciprocated only by friendship.
Residence of the friend hole is most often due to the desired individual already having a boyfriend/girlfriend

Cam wanted to get there with Mackenzie but she already had a boyfriend so he ended up in the friend hole. (again)

That one friend who actually cares about you, helps you study and is also your guardian angel when it comes to clubing and partying.
